What is your “Real” job position?
Organization Development Consultant, NorthCountry Federal Credit Union How many years have you worked in the learning/development realm? 25+ years How did you first get into the learning and development world? My path to L&D began with a college major in elementary education. While a traditional career in the classroom wasn’t for me, my love for “teachable moments” stuck. Throughout a variety of jobs, I applied my educational background in teaching, coaching, and mentoring my colleagues. In 1988 I joined a business mentorship team, and this deepened my love of training. Following a variety of positions in L&D I currently enjoy a primary focus on leadership and organizational development. What’s a favorite quote that gives you inspiration and keeps you going? "People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care." - Theodore Roosevelt What is the must-have book or resource sitting on your desk right now? The Coaching Habit by Michael Bungay Stanier and Strengths-based Leadership by Tom Rath & Barry Conchie |
